Led all the pitches...was lots of fun although we were chasing a storm! Got a late start around noon but still easily managed to get back well before dark. Combining the second and third pitches with my 60 meter rope went well I just had my second climb up with me a few feet at which point I reached the belay ledge just before traversing right for the 4th pitch. Tagged both summits (rappelled on a tiny old pin for 20 feet to get between them). Summit register on the second summit was interesting...although the rain chased us off before I could read through it.

Sat, no one at the Oak Creek trail head at 7am. No one on Olive. Met only two other parties on the return run. My wife said it was due to Valentines day, but slowest Sat I have ever seen at RR and it was a free National Parks Day. Car to car in just over an hour....did a trail run to the base, switched to climbing shoes, soloed the route and trail run on return. This is my favorite free solo for the grade during winter at RR.

climbed this during the porn convention, jan 18th i think. wife thought it was a very strange coincidence our trip was same weekend as convention. day 1 was windy. "climbed" at black corridor. too much time off makes 5.9 awfully hard. day 2 did olive oil. forgot helmet but went anyways. ran pitch 1 into 2. belayed at crack, 3 hexes fixed pro for belay. led pitch 4/5? easy face climbing with long runouts. fun climb
